- Divya Pahuja was murdered, and the following is what we know about the case:
Her family was unable to get in touch with Pahuja, which led to her sister, Naina, approaching the authorities with the suspicion that she had been murdered. Pahuja’s death was brought to light as a result of this. According to what she explained to the authorities, her sister was last seen at a motel in the city that was operated by Abhijeet Singh, who is 56 years old. - After that, a police squad arrived to the hotel late on Tuesday night and discovered blood smears on the stairs. After conducting a thorough search of the hotel’s closed-circuit television system, the crew discovered film of two individuals dragging a body that was wrapped in a bed sheet towards the main entrance of the hotel, prior to loading it into a blue BMW.
- The incident was discovered by the authorities when they analysed the surveillance footage from the hotel’s CCTV cameras. A record of the incident has been kept, and an investigation is currently being carried out. According to Superintendent of Police Mukesh Kumar, who spoke to PTI, the crime team is also conducting an investigation.
- According to the allegations made by the police, Pahuja was attempting to blackmail Singh. The individual reported to the authorities that Pahuja had some of his personal images in her hands and that she had begun blackmailing him not long after she was released from custody.
- “Singh disclosed that on Tuesday evening, he met her in a room in his hotel and attempted to delete the images from her phone. However, he was unable to access the phone because it was locked with a password. Since this resulted in a heated altercation, Singh ended up shooting her to death, according to ACP Kumar.
- Additionally, two of Singh’s employees, Hemraj and Om Prakash, have been taken into custody by the Gurugram Police Department in connection with the investigation. They have not yet located the corpse of the deceased.
